Rouge Trafalgar

Between the sweet gourmand character of strawberry and the earthy foundation of patchouli, Rouge Trafalgar stretches an arc that runs from vivid fruit to a warm, musky base. Presented as an Eau de Parfum by Christian Dior, the composition places strawberry, cherry and mandarin at the top, blackcurrant, raspberry and grapefruit at the heart, before musk and patchouli anchor the whole in a humid depth.

Composition

Fruity opening

Strawberry, cherry and mandarin open the composition. Strawberry brings a sweet softness with a gourmand accent. Cherry lets a nuance of almond and pit show through, while mandarin adds a sun-kissed brightness typical of thin-skinned citrus fruits.

Tangy heart

At the heart, blackcurrant, raspberry and grapefruit meet. Green and slightly sour, blackcurrant carries the sulfurous edge attributed to the bud of the shrub. Raspberry balances sugar and acidity in a rounded sweetness; grapefruit extends the citrus freshness with a distinctly fruity accent.

Musky, earthy base

Musk and patchouli form the base. Musk diffuses a warmth that is both woody and animalic. Drawn from dried and distilled leaves, patchouli brings an earthy material, charged with humidity, crossed by the camphoraceous brightness characteristic of this tropical Asian plant.

Fruity chypre

Patchouli, the earthy pillar of modern chypres, stands opposite the citrus carried by mandarin and grapefruit. The fruity facet comes from strawberry, cherry, blackcurrant and raspberry; the floral facet, listed among the secondary families, steers this bouquet toward more petaled tonalities.
